Your interviewer is curious how capably you'd adhere to their WFM code of conduct. You can easily find their code of conduct online if you'd like to review before your interview and see how it compares to the code of conduct of your previous employers. Whole Foods Market expects all of their team members to "promote a responsible and ethical work environment. As part of our shared fate philosophy, we believe that we all share responsibility for ensuring that WFM as a whole conducts itself according to the highest ethical standards and strives to avoid even the appearance of impropriety."

"If I suspected someone was violating our code of conduct, I would report it, whether it was a matter of ethics or integrity. It is just about doing the right thing and staying true to my commitments. Sometimes I might do this anonymously, but in most situations, I would likely inform my leadership of what happened."

I would report it immediately. I respect the belongings of others and would never take anything that isn't mine unless it was being given to me legitimately. Plus, I have never stolen before.
